First Concepts.
WOB is Optimal
| Random change | Our planet started as a ball of fire in which all elements changed randomly. |
| Oriented change | Then elements started mutating between three phases (solid, liquid, gas) and their change became oriented. |
| Process |
Vapor rose from the sea and became a drop of water which then returned to the sea. The drop was born (from vapor) , existed for a while and died in the sea. Then all matter in our planet (Gia) became structured into processes which are born, exist, and die |
| Life process | The drop of water was joined by an entity arriving from outer space, which knows how to replicate itself (panspermia), Together they became a life process which is born replicates and dies |
| Life stream (process collective) |
Several live drops joined together into a stream in which all interact |
| Wisdom of the body (WOB) | Some streams maintain
their form (homeorhesis). The set of interacting processes which
maintains its form is called WOB.
Its capability to maintain its form is regarded metaphorically
as a wisdom, hence WOB. WOB is an open set with inputs and outputs, which are processes. |
| WOB is optimal | Life depends on resources collected from outside. In order to survive WOB restructures processes and resources in the most advantageous way. It maximizes tolerance |
| WOB solution | An optimal restructuring of processes and resources. |
| Complexity | Driven by the urge to survive WOB becomes more and more complex. (One ought to distinguish between complexity and physical dimension) |
| Mind | A subset of WOB processes designed to interpret the outer world. It is equipped with sense organs, and nerves. Mind is an interface between WOB and the outer world. Like the Greek God Janus, mind faces two directions. Inward it listens to WOB messages and satisfies its demands. Outward, it interprets the outer world and guides WOB to resources. |
| Mind evolution | Mind appears in life forms with sense organs, like paramecium and medusa. In more complex animals, like dog, mind is the site of will, imagination and reasoning (conditioned reflex). In the human, mind is also the site of language. The newborn or the patient in coma are a mindless WOB. |
| Disease | A medical concept, which serves for communication between doctors. Disease does not exist as such in nature. What medicine conceives as disease is a tolerance decline accompanied by WOB complaints |
| Health | A state when WOB is silent and does not send signals to the mind that it needs help |
| Tolerance | The capacity of WOB to sustain life. It is a measure of WOB reserves (resources) |
| Normal and pathological | Like disease these are medical concepts. WOB is neither normal nor pathological. It is more or less tolerant. WOB optimality means that it maximizes tolerance. |
| Therapy | Work out a compromise between WOB and mind demands. Provide resources which WOB and mind lack, and maximize tolerance. |
| Driver | A process that depletes WOB resources and diminishes its tolerance. Microbes drive infections. Our will drives WOB to support it. Generally will (mind) provides also resources and may raise tolerance |
| WOB disease | A WOB solution accompanied by a WOB complaint |
| Mind disease | A conflict between WOB and mind demands. Since wasting resources mind disease reduces tolerance |
| Physician's task | To work out a compromise between WOB and mind demands, and slow down disease progression (tolerance decline) |
| Disease-Yogi | An individual which knows how to live with his
disease in harmony and slows down its progression (tolerance
decline). His faculty is marked by the |
| Gaia | A super -WOB in which life evolves (differentiates). What mind perceives as outer world, is inside Gaia |
| Cosmos and life | Eternal processes |
| What is the purpose of life? | WOB: Living Mind: Seeking |
| Nothing gets lost - | It only changes |
